Let them drill and learn to manipulate it to uivanlae. Have it located in the business district. Provide a good lire bell with a tone distinctly different from other bells and onlv. under penalty of the law, to be runi; as a rlre alarm. When this alarm sounds (we trust it never shall) let each man of the company drop his work, or jump nut of bed into his clothes, or leave his best girl as the caso may be, and run to his post. Everybody will be surprised to see how quickly the pump can be got to working at the scene of a tire even though it may be seven or eight block away from the flrohouse. That is one way. Water works is the other. Water works will cost mure money than can be subscribed. So tlw town will have to issue bonds. We can't do this till e organize as a city of the fourth class. We can do that by an election after a census is taken to ice it we are large enough. (We know we are large enough but we aiust have the census just the same. ) Then there is the question of water. A deep well must be Irilled. Can wo raise enough money bv subscription to drill it? Say let a contract at SSOO or S1000, no satisfactory amount of water no pay. If wo can get the water we believe we can vote the bonds ind net the water works, which will be a splendid thing for our town. Factories cannot locale here without water. A good supply of water will be used in a hundred different ways. Now let's see if wo can get the water. If a well can be bored in the south part of town that will supply the water, a stand pipe can be placed there ind the water forced to all parts of he tow n. The project is a good one and we'll do all we can to push it. but in the meantime, let's spend a few hundred dollars and nave the best protection from tire we enn t;et at the present moment. We don't for a moment think that ven if we have the hand pump or hemiea! engine the people of hvensville are going to stand back in the water works proposition iftcr ii t-i once demonstrated that we can eet it.

Let them drill and learn to manipulate it to uivanlae. Have it located in the business district. Provide a good lire bell with a tone distinctly different from other bells and onlv. under penalty of the law, to be runi; as a rlre alarm. When this alarm sounds (we trust it never shall) let each man of the company drop his work, or jump nut of bed into his clothes, or leave his best girl as the caso may be, and run to his post. Everybody will be surprised to see how quickly the pump can be got to working at the scene of a tire even though it may be seven or eight block away from the flrohouse. That is one way. Water works is the other. Water works will cost mure money than can be subscribed. So tlw town will have to issue bonds. We can't do this till e organize as a city of the fourth class. We can do that by an election after a census is taken to ice it we are large enough. (We know we are large enough but we aiust have the census just the same. ) Then there is the question of water. A deep well must be Irilled. Can wo raise enough money bv subscription to drill it? Say let a contract at SSOO or S1000, no satisfactory amount of water no pay. If wo can get the water we believe we can vote the bonds ind net the water works, which will be a splendid thing for our town. Factories cannot locale here without water. A good supply of water will be used in a hundred different ways. Now let's see if wo can get the water. If a well can be bored in the south part of town that will supply the water, a stand pipe can be placed there ind the water forced to all parts of he tow n. The project is a good one and we'll do all we can to push it. but in the meantime, let's spend a few hundred dollars and nave the best protection from tire we enn t;et at the present moment.
